Thank the gods we live in such a car-saturated nation, how horrible it would be if this space was used to house people - eviltoast

    Lmfao. This community is a joke. Must be, to be this ignorant of reality.

    It doesn’t have to take up more space, claiming the same thing, while denying reality (places do it already) is quite the walled garden you’ve made for yourselves here.

      It’s quite simple. Cars hold far fewer people per square meter than public transit, and need wide roads for traffic and potential accidents. They destroy the environment and require infrastructure like stoplights, that waste minutes at a time.

        Cars can stop anywhere, buses, if they did that for passengers instead of set stops, it would take a day to make a route.

        You are sacrificing convenience, and both can coexist, the roads are already needed, lights too, even for buses and cabs and what not. They wouldn’t just magically disappear with public transport.

        Again, lacking the reality. What you’re suggesting for what people want, can’t happen, since it would be far more time consuming, for everyone involved.

          Good thing nobody wants buses to do that. You are quite literally imagining the least efficient form of public transit to avoid making an actual point. Cars clog infrastructure and you can have non-bus methods when you need to go more specific places.

          You’re just inventing reasons to mald.

            What…? Of course people want that, it’s been one of your main points this entire time, and now that I’ve pointed out the flaw, you can discard it now…?

            People don’t use buses because of the lack of stops, it’s literally one of the most frequent complaints about them. But too many and it makes it too slow.

            Am I mad? I’ve been asking to get a viewpoint into your perspective and all you’ve done is show me how whiney and bitchy this community is.

            If anything, you’re projecting that onto me since I’m questioning your beliefs, which does usually anger people. Clearly this community wants to be a walled garden without any outside opinions for discussion.

            Sad…. Blocking you can this community since it doesn’t want discussions.

              No, lmao, people don’t want busses to be the only mode of transit. Trains, bikes, walking, etc.

              You’re malding and have no points, lmao.
